Overview
With recent bandwidth improvements and new innovations from National Instruments, USB has evolved into a core bus of choice for measurement and automation applications. NI M Series devices for USB deliver high-performance data acquisition in an easy-to-use and portable form factor through USB ports on laptop computers and other portable computing platforms. National Instruments designed the new and innovative patent-pending NI signal streaming technology that enables sustained bidirectional high-speed data streams on USB. The new technology, combined with advanced external synchronization and isolation, helps engineers and scientists achieve high-performance applications on USB. NI M Series bus-powered multifunction data acquisition (DAQ) devices for USB are optimized for superior accuracy in a small form factor. They provide an onboard NI-PGIA 2 amplifier designed for fast settling times at high scanning rates, ensuring 16-bit accuracy even when measuring all available channels at maximum speed. All bus-powered devices have a minimum of 16 analog inputs, digital triggering, and two counter/timers. USB M Series devices are ideal for test, control, and design applications including portable data logging, field monitoring, embedded OEM, in-vehicle data acquisition and academic. Back to Top

Detailed Specifications
Specifications listed below are typical at 25 C unless otherwise noted. Refer to the NI USB-621x User Manual for more information about USB-621x devices. Caution The input/output ports of this device are not protected for electromagnetic interference due to functional reasons. As a result, this device may experience reduced measurement accuracy or other temporary performance degradation when connected cables are routed in an environment with radiated or conducted radio frequency electromagnetic interference. To ensure that this device functions within specifications in its operational electromagnetic environment and to limit radiated emissions, care should be taken in the selection, design, and installation of measurement probes and cables.

Absolute accuracy at full scale on the analog input channels is determined using the following assumptions:
TempChangeFromLastExternalCal = 10 C TempChangeFromLastInternalCal = 1 C number_of_readings = 100 CoverageFactor = 3 For example, on the 10 V range, the absolute accuracy at full scale is as follows: GainError = 75 ppm + 7.3 ppm 1 + 5 ppm 10 GainError = 132 ppm OffsetError = 20 ppm + 34 ppm 1 + 76 ppm OffsetError = 130 ppm
Sensitivity is the smallest voltage change that can be detected. It is a function of noise.
Accuracies listed are valid for up to one year from the device external calibration.

Stresses beyond those listed under Input voltage protection may cause permanent damage to the device. If you are using a USB M Series device in Full-Speed mode, device performance will be lower and you will not be able to achieve maximum sampling/update rates.
USB-621x Screw Terminal/BNC devices have a self-resetting fuse that opens when current exceeds this specification. USB-621 x Mass Termination devices have a user-replaceable socketed fuse that opens when current exceeds this specification. Refer to the NI USB-621x User Manual for information about fuse replacement.
